Montana is a state found in the western region of the United States of America. Montana's own western region has many mountain rangers while its central area has island ranges. About 77 of the state's mountain ranges are part of the Rocky Mountains. In fact, the name "Montana" is from the Spanish word for "mountain". While Montana is considered to be one of the most extensive states in the country, it's also considered to be one of the least populous and least densely populated.

Most of Montana's revenue comes from ranching, farming, mining, and tourism. The places most visited by tourists yearly include the Yellowstone National Park, Glacier National Park and the Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument. Because of the varied topography of Montana, it also has varied climates in different parts of the state. Eastern Montana has a semi-arid, continental climate. Western Mntana has more of a Pacific coast climate.

Montana also has a lot of ski areas including Big Sky Resort, Great Divide, Lookout Pass, Teton Pass Ski Area, Whitefish Mountain Resort, and many others. Many of Montana's states are prime areas for blue-ribbon trout fishing. It's one of the few areas in the world whose river feeds to form three major watersheds. The rivers of Montana feed into the Pacific Ocean, Hudson Bay and the Gulf of Mexico.

Because of its beautiful mountain ranges, Montana houses several residential programs and therapeutic boarding schools. These programs often incorporate wilderness training and harnesses the therapeutic effect of nature as part of the recovery of troubled young teens. Some examples of therapeutic boarding schools in Montana include Building Bridges (all-boys), Explorations (coeducational), Elk Mountain Academy (all-boys), among many others.

An example of Montana boarding schools include Lustre Christian High School which is a christian, college preparatory boarding school for boys and girls. The school campus is quite small (only admitting 40 students at a time), but it's a tightly-knit community where young people can commune with nature while they are learning.
